WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump is addressing the Libertarian National Convention, courting a segment of the conservative electorate that’s often skeptical of the former president’s bombast while trying to ensure attendees aren’t drawn to independent White House hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Trump’s Saturday night speech comes as the former president has intensified his attacks on Kennedy.
